Kind of an awesome book and gives great advice, I don't completely understand it but I think I'll be ready for the Stock market next year. Jim cramer,w ho's also on Tv helps explain what to invest in. He helps explain in what to do when it comes to doing your hw and making sure that you limit yourself when it comes to buying. He tells you when to buy and when to sell. He gives accounts of bad and yet good calls he made when it came to buying shares.

Everything you've ever wanted to know about investing in the stock market. I was an investing newbie when I read this book. Almost a year later I am reading it again for the 3rd time and still soaking in Jim's plethora of information. He walks you through every step of doing homework on your stocks. He also gives great advice on buying and selling in increments.

Using his advice I feel empowered that I can effectively manage my own money and not have to depend on mutual funds and pay those mutual fund fees.

Entertaining tutorial on beginning investing. Working in the industry, I can say that it is a good start for those interested, but not necessarily an academic account on real world finance/investing.

this is a terrible book really. after his success in his other books, i believe he just wanted to milk the cow again. its short, and incredibly dull. it kind of takes away from the brilliance of his earlier wok. I honestly dont recommend it.

Good introductory to the stock market. Doesn't go into too many details about certain sectors. Explains how his show works as well too.

Cramer walks you through his television program in fashion allowing the viewer to profit from his tips. The real value here is Cramer's methodology for trading, not necessarily his picks. Cramer's writing style is entertaining but makes the book much longer than need be. Read it selectively. Best chapter is what to look for when he's interviewing a CEO. Again, it's better read for what Cramer looks for and, therefore, what you should look for when you listen to company's leadership spout and tout.

Not as good as the first. How to make money, write a follow-up book that is a re-hash of the first.

This is a good book to read if you are new to the stock market and want to get some insight on how Wall Street works. I think Jim Cramer is a smart guy when it comes to investing and even though you shouldn't alway take his word on everything he says, he has a good handle on the market and how it is doing.... and right now it's doing really bad.

Besides a little too much self promotion and useless preamble, this is a decent book for people who know little about the stock market but have always wanted to get into it.

Jim Cramer is my hero. In today's information age, Jim is the voice of reason and experience. He provides the average person the means to succeed on Wall Street. If you are thinking about investing, then read this book and then read it again. In this book Jim discusses how to interactively watch his show.

Most of the advice in the book is general knowledge and can still be applied today but all contemporary examples are more historical nowadays, since the book is over 12 years old now.
